Champion![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() MORNING GHOULIES. woke up to an internet connection. WAHOOO! we've never had any issues before - the connection is reliable and uber speedy - but for some odd reason the DNS went down like 2-3 times over the weekend. i guess it didnt much matter since the weather was SPECTACULAR. everyone should have been outside enjoying it (while its here) rather than sitting on the computers. LOL. still feelin' like im playing a little catch up. but im thankful for a back at it week this week. though i know recovery weeks are necessary, im always glad to get back at a regular schedule. i think ive pounded out one that will work from now until mid-Jan when i start my OLY trng. its a cool feeling though, looking at where im at now heading into winter, compared to where i was this time last year. i was JUST starting out w tri trng - cycling was brand new as was swimming. i really felt it on Saturday, during 2 hr endurance...and then when i did my mile swim yesturday just how far ive come! its an uber cool place to be. 3 miler and THE DREADED ST on tap today. must. catch. up. to. TRIDORK! stacieb |

How you doin' Tom? Doing well Ann, thanks for asking! Got my fitness test done today, making it 2 ST sessions for me this month. Also, I broke 10 minutes on the mile and a half run for the first time in 6 years! 9:56 baby!!! WOOHOO!!! Way to go Tom!!! Thanks Ann! How are you doing this fine Sunday? I've been a bum all afternoon. I ran 7 miles this morning, then walked a mile as a cool down. When I got home I made a smoothie, weighed myself, put on my robe and have spent most of the rest of the day relaxing in my favorite chair in a quiet house. I really should go shower. oh ANN. sounds like the best day EVER. stacieb |

About 5 min. into it, I stopped at a corner to stretch. This guy (probably at least late 60s pulls up and parks his pickup. He heads towards me, asks if I am heading out or just finishing a run. Then proceeds to tell me that running, biking, etc. doesn't do my health any good. I DON'T want a conversation with this guy, so I just shrug and say I just do it for fun. Then he says, "Yeah, my son smokes marijuana "for fun" and the endorphin high from exercise does the same thing to a person's health. Running and biking are very bad for your health." Then he hands me a card and says to check it out on his website. He also says that he is a "class 2" bike rider meaning that he could ride with Lance if he came to town. Yeah, right! I so do not believe THAT one. Anyway, at that point, I took off jogging. I haven't gone to his website because if he has a counter on his site, I don't want to encourage him. The whole thing was rather bizarre. On the other hand, I really enjoyed my jog! Maybe he thought you were cute and he was trying to pick you up. Ugh!! Perish the thought! ![]() I have to admit that on my run today, I kept an eye out for his pickup. But thankfully did not see it. ![]() Sounds like you have a really good day just enjoying! 7 miles, wow! To me that is a lot, but I will get there someday. It feels good to just have time to kick back and relax, doesn't it DEE. your smart. stay aware. best defense. as for 7 miles seemingly like a lot, you will MOST CERTAINLY get there someday. and more than likely w how persistent and consistent you are, and your enthusiasm for the 'sport', probably sooner than you think. JUST. KEEP. RUNNING. stacieb |

Yes it was a beautiful weekend, but don't be depressed. You are taking care of yourself now so you can enjoy next summer when there will be more beautiful days and races to ROCK! |
